U Zlateho Kola (At the Golden Wheel)

Nerudova 28, Hradcany and Mala Stran�

Close to its stylish companion the Neruda, the Golden Wheel is a seamless blend of the old and the new. Sophisticatedly simple modern furnishings sit under painted ceilings and quadripartite vaults. Supposedly boutique in style, the small number of rooms gives intimate connotations, however those expecting a true boutique style are likely to be a little disappointed.

Nestled at the base of the Castle walls on Nerudova street (part of the Royal Way), U Zlatého Kola lends a sense of substance and style to the area, much like its neighbour, the Neruda.

With only 17 rooms behind its impressive baroque façade, U Zlatého Kola takes a gourmet rather than gourmand approach to space, ensuring that this town house exudes a decent aura of room and privacy. The interior is a successful amalgamation of modern and traditional styles, where fresh designer furnishings work with traditional painted ceilings.

Rooms boast contemporary bedrooms, resplendent with arty photographs and impressive black-and-white tiled bathrooms; the space of the upper floors looks out towards the Castle walls and St Vitus’ Cathedral, or across to the Petrˇin tower and surrounding park.

Other hidden charms include a garden at the top of the house, a glass balcony look-out point and a glass box lift. The stylish little café downstairs, Arcadia, sells ridiculously rich hot chocolates and proper Italian coffee. U Zlatého Kola is clearly a boutique hotel worthy of the title.
